      That unfortunately is a Charvel model 6 and not a USA Jackson Soloist like mentioned in the auction. Still a very cool looking quality axe though. How much was it may I ask?
      We must!

          Man I saw that one and thought about jumping on it myself. Had I seen a better pic of what the headstock looked like up close I could have been more easily persuaded.

          Nice grab! Glad to see a JCFer get it.

            And that is why there wasn't a better pic of the headstock and the logo.

              Model 6? So it's a refinish then? Looks nice.

                Am I seeing things or does that trem have a recessed route, if so it's not a model 6, it's an older USA soloist. Or the route was added when the refin was done.

                  It was added. Look at the route cut compaired to other route cuts on USA or import Jackson/Charvel guitars. It is different. If it were a USA Soloist the fretboard extension where the serial number is would be much longer. Depending on price it is still probably a decent deal. Custom refinish, EMG loaded, JT6 trem upgraded and routed for pullback. The model 6 plays just as nice anyhow. They were made quite well back then.

                          It looks like a copy of a Zion graphic. Made by dropping paint onto the body then blowing with an air gun before it drys.
